3 In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and troubled the water; whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he said unto him, Dost thou desire to be made whole?
7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man when the water is troubled to put me into the pool, but while I am coming, another steps down before me.
8 Jesus said unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole and took up his bed and walked, and on that day was the sabbath.
